Description

*** TOP 5% GLOBAL PODCAST ***

Have you ever felt a song stirring inside you — but you’re not sure how to bring it to life?

Do you dream of writing and singing your own music, but find yourself held back by doubt, perfectionism, or the fear that you’re “not good enough”?

Maybe you’ve spent years studying, performing, or people-pleasing with your voice… or maybe you’ve never let yourself believe you could be a singer or a songwriter.

And all the tutorials, drills, and music theory lessons? They just make the process feel more complicated — and less creative.

If you’re ready to quiet the noise and reconnect with the song in your heart, I’m so glad you’re here.

This podcast will help aspiring singer-songwriters like you:

🎵 find your authentic voice and unique sound
🎵 write and sing your own songs — even if you don’t know where to begin
🎵 simplify the creative process from inspiration to finished song
🎵 build confidence to share your music with the world

Whether you dream of performing on stage, recording an album, or simply creating music that feels like you, this podcast will meet you where you are — and guide you toward becoming the artist you’re meant to be.

Hey, I’m Lainey — former opera singer turned singer-songwriter and voice & creativity coach.

This podcast was born from a time in my life when I had worked so hard to mold my voice into what I thought it was supposed to be that I lost my way as an artist… and stopped singing altogether.

After years of trying to perfect my sound, I realized I didn’t want to perform other people’s music anymore. I wanted to sing my own. So I started writing songs — raw, imperfect, honest songs — and rediscovered the joy of creative freedom. Now, I help other aspiring singer-songwriters do the same.

If you’re ready to:

✨ reconnect with your voice through creative, holistic practices
✨ learn simple, soulful ways to write your own songs
✨ let go of judgment and rediscover your love of singing

Grab your notebook, pour a cup of tea, and let’s uncover the songs that have been waiting inside you.

Let’s find your voice!

<3 Lainey
